However in the real world, using a parachute while free falling has serious implications. If the parachute does not deploy at the right moment, the person can fall to their death.

Powered parachutes, sometimes called motorized parachutes or para-planes, are considered by many to be safer than typical aircraft. There are two primary ways to control a powered parachute; either by increasing or decreasing engine power, which controls the vertical rate of climb and deflects the right or left trailing edge of the parachute, thus turning the aircraft right or left. If the trailing edge of the wing is somehow pulled in on both sides at the same time, the aircraft will flare, which means it will slow and temporarily gain additional lift. Flaring is typically used to make fine adjustments in altitude when near the ground and when landing.
